That's his father's skull.

Now that popularity is almost gone-not to mention digging the grave, and taking away his father's head, who can stand this?

At that time, there was a bit of friction between their family and the family in the west of the village for farming, thinking that it must be the family in the west of the village who came to make a stumbling block, and immediately entangled the family, and copied the guy to go to the west of the village to ask for his father's head.

The family in the west of the village was originally worried about the local affairs, and when they heard this, they didn't do it, saying that Lao Tzu took the head and backbone of your old man, pretending to drink wine? Without evidence, I think you're here to find fault!

The older people in the village also came to mediate, saying that there was really no evidence, and it was not possible that thieves from outside the mountain did it.

Because there is also a custom in the funeral in this place, it is called "Zhenkou Jin".

That is, after a person dies, he will put a piece of gold in the mouth of the dead, which means that he will carry gold in his mouth and bring wealth to his children and grandchildren, and there is also less talk on the Huangquan Road, so as not to offend the escort.

So some poor and crazy people will also fight the idea of Zhenkou Jin.

But the family who lost the skull immediately threw out the piece of Zhenkou gold: "Which tomb robber doesn't want gold and wants a skull?" I think it's this family that makes people uncomfortable! ”

These two families said that I dug the grave and stole the skull, and I said that you found fault, and the fight was inextricable, and in the end, both sides were defeated, and they were all angry.

And this was not over, that night, the family who lost the skull suddenly heard a movement in the yard, as if someone had jumped over the wall and touched their house.

This made the man angry, thinking that it must be the family in the west of the village who suffered a loss, and came over to make a black hand again, and went out with a flat shoulder.

That night was the first day of the new year, and there was hardly any moonlight overhead, and he saw a very tall man standing in front of the chicken coop, not knowing what to do.

Every family here raises chickens - the chickens crow in the morning, and touch a few eggs in the evening, and the man said in his heart that this man stole my father's skull, and he will come to steal my chicken, and I have to fight with him today anyway.

So he rushed forward and struck the man with a flat shoulder.

As a result, the man suddenly let out a terrible scream, and he asked his wife to come over to shine on the thief with a lantern - didn't he catch a person and get it?

But when her wife held up the lamp, she didn't say anything, and when she rolled her eyes, she fell to the ground, as if she had seen something terrible.

The man thinks that his wife is usually not small, what's wrong?

took the lantern and shone it on the chicken coop, and the man also sat on the ground.

I saw that the person squatting in front of the chicken coop was none other than his long-dead father.

And his father had a rooster in his hand, and the hair on the chicken's neck was still fried, but it was motionless—there was blood all over his throat, as if he had been bitten to death.

On the side of his father's mouth, there was a string of chicken blood and a few chicken feathers.

The man was not much better than the hostess, and he fainted with his eyes plugged in.

Hazy, it seems that a voice has also been heard.

"I'm hungry...... I'm hungry ......."

The next day, someone went to their house to borrow salt, only to see the two of them fall in the yard, almost did not break the man's courage, and when he touched the two of them, he was still hot, and quickly poured cold water to wake them up.

The two woke up and wondered if they were dreaming yesterday? But when I saw it, my whole body trembled - the chicken coop was also destroyed, the yard was full of chicken feathers, and the flat pole from yesterday was still thrown on the ground.

His father...... Really back?

These two people together - eight into the old man lost his head, lost his temper, is to come to the children and grandchildren to settle accounts, thinking that this is not possible, quickly go to the family in the west of the village, said that begging to ask the old man's head to come back, not to let the old man into the soil for peace, if you come back every day, how can the family live?

As soon as I went out, I saw that the family in the west of the village also brought this guy here, saying that he wanted to fight hard with this family, and when he asked, it turned out that the ancestral grave of the family was also dug up, and he also lost the old lady's skull, but he did not lose the gold of the town.

Let everyone think that this family is on their revenge, this family is also dumb and eat coptis, there is bitterness and can't be said, you think I dug your house, I think you dug our house.

Not long after, the family at the west end of the village came to the family with a white face, begging him to return the skull—the old lady who had lost her skull also appeared at night, and there was not a single chicken left in the house.

The two families were fighting over this, and the grave of the third family was also dug open, exactly the same, and the skull was also lost.

The people of the third family are honest, they are very popular in the village, and they have never offended anyone, and now they understand that the person who digs the grave may not be a person.

Or...... It was those old men and old ladies who came out on their own.

Now the whole village is in a panic, some people go to the ancestral grave every night to guard, afraid of being dug up, but this place is in the mountains, rich in water resources, at night the temperature difference is large, there is always fog, a bad look, the grave will be opened, lose the skull.

In this way, almost every family has lost their skulls, and these families who have lost their skulls have also seen old men and old ladies who have lost their skulls one after another, and they have come to the yard to eat chicken.

There are children in the house, and they say that they heard their voices: "I am cold, I am hungry......"

The people in the village said that eighty percent of the etiquette in our village was not thoughtful, so that the old man and the old lady were wronged, so they came out of the field to find food, so they had to be coaxed.

The people in the village seemed to be scared, and every family made a big sacrifice at the door, which meant that the old man was invited to eat a full meal and go back quickly.

According to the rules, during the sacrifice, a feast is held at the door of the house, and the family members have to keep the door closed - they can't meet the dead, and when the dead are full, they should go back.

That night, the family hid behind the gate and looked out through the crack in the threshold.

It didn't matter what I saw, I saw a pair of legs on the offering table from behind the door, gobbling it up, and these people were glad at the time - when you're full, you can go!

didn't think about it, there was a strange voice outside the door: "It's delicious, I'll come back tomorrow." ”

At a glance the next day, the banquet was really empty, and now the people in the village were sad - the village was not rich, and no one could afford to set up a banquet every day.

If you have a heart, go down the mountain to find someone to come up with ideas, this village is biased, and you can't give much money, and those who know this kind of thing under the mountain don't like to come, so they taught them a way, saying that the old man didn't come back every night? Eighty percent of the funeral etiquette is not in accordance with the rules, you get the coffin out, and every household is reburied according to the uniform specifications, which fulfills the wish of the elderly, and things will be in order.

Therefore, the people here all took out the coffin and put it at the door, ready to do the funeral again, but after a few new times, the old man who lost his skull still came back every night, which made the people in the village sad.

This is not when we came just now, they heard a knock on the door, thinking that those old men and old ladies had come back to ask for food in the middle of the day, and none of them dared to open the door.

Lost the skull and defrauded the corpse?

It's the first time I've heard anything like this.

Cheng Xinghe also frowned: "I can't imagine that the old men and old ladies in this village are all food lovers and fellow travelers!" ”

Who's with you?

At the wrong glance, he smiled heartily, as if he had already heard what was going on, and was looking at me with a gloating expression, obviously wanting to see how I handled the matter.

At a glance, you know that you can't ask him, and you have to rely on yourself.

When everyone saw my expression, they looked at each other and asked me if it was difficult to do it, I was just about to speak, but Cheng Xinghe's stomach was one step ahead, and he screamed with a grunt.

The scene was very embarrassing for a while, and when the little girl's mother saw this, she hurriedly said: "Mr. came all the way, he must be hungry, eat first and then talk about Mo." ”

The other villagers also sneered, showing a distrustful expression, and one of them whispered: "The dead will come to eat, the living will come to eat, and the chickens will suffer again." ”

Cheng Xinghe was unhappy for a moment: "What do you mean by this, when we come to cheat and eat and drink?" ”

Those people stopped squeaking, apparently thinking so in their hearts.

Fortunately, the little girl has seen the world and is sensible, saying that the people in the village are petty, so let's not worry about it, and let us go to their house.

When the woman went to cook, the little girl stared at us, and she looked quite cute, so I asked her, "Are you afraid that something like this has happened in the village?" ”

The little girl blinked her eyes wide and said, "I'm afraid, they starve when they are alive, and when they die, they naturally have to eat, if I can't eat steamed buns during the day, I will also have to find food at night." ”

I was stunned: "When I was alive...... Starving? ”

What does this mean, although this village is poor, what age is it, it doesn't look like it's starving, right?

Who knew that the little girl then said: "Yes, I heard my grandmother say that those old people are starving to death." ”
